“I find it so ironic that you will use terms such as ‘protestant heresy’...yet when the Pope says the ‘Koran And Holy Bible Are The Same’...and ‘Jesus Christ, Jehovah, Allah. These are all names employed to describe an entity that is distinctly the same across the world’...THAT you’ll defend...”

Good news:

I do NOT ascribe to the heresy of “John Paul II” because I as a TRUE Catholic reject his “papacy” on the same counts that you do.

Now that aside, I do recognized the true papacies of popes prior to the heretic “John XXIII” which you may not. All of the “popes” from “John XXIII” were heretics because they accept a Protestantized version of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.

Repent and believe the good news of Jesus Christ!

To: Repent and Believe
I have repented and believed. Here is the Gospel: For by grace you are saved, not of yourselves but it is a gift from God, not by works least any should boast (Eph 2:8, 9). I have agreed with God concerning my condition (as a sinner) and also agreed with Him concerning the just punishment for my crimes...which are against Him and His holy nature. I agree that there is nothing within myself worthy of redemption and I deserve hell because of my sin. THAT is repentance...that is the way the word is used in the New Testament scriptures (and the LXX). Therefore, I have repented as it is defined by the scriptures.

I also BELIEVE that Jesus Christ paid the penalty of those sins on the Cross. His blood atoned for my sin (and without the shedding of blood there is no remission of sin). I have placed my absolute hope and unwavering trust in His sacrifice to save me. That is faith as defined by the scriptures.

I believe Jesus Christ has existed eternally with the Father and Holy Spirit in the Trinity. I believe that Jesus is God's ONLY Son. I believe He (Jesus) was born of the Virgin Mary (As was prophesied in Isaiah 7)...He lives a sinless life...He died on the cross as a ransom for many (Matthew 20:28)...He was buried and rose again on the 3rd day according to the scriptures. He ascended and is now seated at the right hand of God. He will come again to judge the world and set up His kingdom.

That is the Gospel. That is the "good news"...and I have believed it...as countless others did and have throughout the ages.
